Track/Time attack/drift 20V cam

My mate bought this shell a couple of months ago with the intention of making a track/time attack/drift car.so we started work on it this evening by getting it in the garage and making a start of stripping it bare.there's some rust to be sorted out and its gonna be seam welded and lightened
the idea is to have it a running track car by the end of next year and to compete in time attack in 2011

this is the worst par of the cam and at that most of whats seen in the picture is surface rust,we have to sort this out first by replacing the floor here

Haha AE86's are taking over the site. Cool build hope it goes well for ya. Them metal gauzes are suppose to sap the power dramaticly I havent first hand experience of this but a fella on ae86irl dyno tested an escort with and without gauzes and when they were fitted it lost something like 21bhp. The socks are a better option but can tear, it happened to mine so I just took them off didnt do any harm but you run the risk of stones/dust getting in but if its just a track car the risk would be low.
